Default Would this be a good/bad bottom end for forced induction?

b18b
type r water and oil pump,
eagle stroker kit with rods
je 11:1 pistons.

I know this compression is high for a turbo application, but I could lower compression with a thicker head gasket.

The guy selling it was using a type r head, I will be using my B18B head, will this affect the compression ratio?

Thanks

the compression is gonna be a little lower with the LS head. I wouldn't bother running a turbo setup on it with that high compression and i am not a fan of the stroker kits. just my 2 cents

Thanks for the reply...any reason you don't like stroker kits?

It would be a tad lower with an Ls head and thicker head gasket, but not by alot. I wouldn't recommend going turbo with that high a compression....you will need a good stand alone and tuner if you want that to be safe and reliable. Which usually doesn't go in the same sentence with turbo anyway...lol.

Good luck.
